"So? He’s learned his lesson????" He Wenyu looked at the letter, disbelief written all over his face.
Luo Qianqian also didn’t understand and spread her hands, "Isn’t he afraid you’ll pocket it all?" she said half-jokingly.
"Would I do that?" He Wenyu was full of exasperation.
Clutching the bank card and somewhat at a loss, "Should I give it to my dad and mom or directly to... his dad and mom?"
"Do you really think if you give it to them they could continue relying on your parents here?" Luo Qianqian quickly shook her head, "Godmother and godfather are more reliable. Worst case, consider it a vacation, and we’ll sort it out once we’re back."
...He Wenyu smirked, "I feel like my parents would just shut down their business and deal with this if they heard this."
"It makes sense—to resolve this sooner so you can relax. You saw their drama yesterday; do you think godmother and godfather could stand it every day?" Luo Qianqian quickly agreed, feeling it was better to give them a reason to leave than to let them cling to the brother’s family due to having no way out.
"I think He Juncai must think so too," He Wenyu sighed, his face full of helplessness. Why did he have to deal with such terrible relatives?
But the next second, his gaze bizarrely fixed on Luo Qianqian. Luo Qianqian’s stepfather’s family was also a mess. The Lin Family didn’t have He Juncai’s realization; otherwise, they wouldn’t all end up in a psychiatric hospital, getting high-level treatment. Lin Xu felt quite good about it—after all, there was food, drink, and shelter, and his small home didn’t have to worry about being destroyed.
"Why are you looking at me?" Luo Qianqian shuddered slightly, pouted, and lay face up on the bed, "Why do I feel He Juncai is so strange? Even if he was educated for three years, it shouldn’t make him question the education he received during his childhood, right?"
"I think you’re really lucky," He Wenyu smirked and explained, "Think about it, you were supposed to have such terrible relatives too, but your senior brother took care of it successfully."
"Yeah, not having such relatives is one of the best things in life." Thinking of the Lin Family, Luo Qianqian shuddered again; she had been hurt, after all.
"But based on what you said, should I be a bit concerned for mom and An Hao?" Luo Qianqian suddenly pursed her lips, "Imagine, if Uncle Lin could make us design to send his family to that kind of place without trying to interfere, might he in the future..."
"Are you silly?" He Wenyu quickly interrupted her, "I can guarantee, as long as you are here, godmother won’t have any problems, even if he harbors the thought, he won’t... he’s got the motive but not the nerve. If you can send those people there, you can send him there too."
"It’s not me..."
"But it’s because of your involvement that he took action, isn’t it?"
Luo Qianqian fell silent; He Wenyu was right, the reason her senior brother took action was indeed because of her.
"However, don’t think too badly of Uncle Lin. He treats you, Brother and Brother Jiayou no differently. He even gives you a bigger red envelope after exams, and he puts money into godmother’s account every month saying that it’s for your living expenses, to be transferred to you by godmother." He Wenyu spoke, "If it weren’t for his family being too outrageous, Uncle Lin wouldn’t have just watched. Think about it, they hurt you first and even planned to hurt An Hao. If he could forgive that, he might as well not continue with godmother. Godmother would definitely divorce. He can’t even protect you, and you got hurt protecting An Hao, especially when the instigators are his own family..."
Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes, "What have you been watching recently, don’t you know emotions are the least controllable?" Luo Qianqian sighed, having made this choice now, would she regret it later? Could it become a reason for arguments between Uncle Lin and mom?
"Looks like I need to talk to Uncle Lin before we leave," Luo Qianqian spread her hands, then looked towards He Wenyu, who was frozen on the spot, "What’s wrong with you?"
He Wenyu held up his phone to show Luo Qianqian, displaying a message: Have you finished your math paper? Can I copy it?
"Aren’t you almost done with your writing?" Luo Qianqian also frowned.
"Yeah," He Wenyu nodded, but school starts tomorrow, and she still had other papers to do!!!
"Qianqian, let’s go home and get the papers, we don’t need to do anything else today..." He Wenyu was almost crying, even though Luo Qianqian had helped her write quite a bit when she first returned, there was still a considerable amount left...
"..." After changing their clothes, the two quickly posted a note on Jimo Cheng’s door and hurried downstairs to catch a taxi and leave.
Hearing the door open, Jimo Cheng, suspicious, put on his pajamas and opened the door. He didn’t see anyone, but he noticed the note on the door with the white edge showing, casually peeled it off, and then couldn’t help but laugh and cry.
Brother, we’re going home to grab some stuff and will be back soon. Remember to open the door for us.
Once home, He Wenyu went to He Jun’s room. After all, there was the matter with the bank card, while Luo Qianqian took the holiday homework list, opened He Wenyu’s backpack, and transferred items from one backpack to another.
It wasn’t long before He Wenyu came back with a long face, "Just like you said, my mom and dad are going back today..."
"What?" Luo Qianqian’s eyes widened.
Then Huang Yueran entered the room. "Qianqian, Xiao Yu, you guys buy your own food these few days, call if there’s anything, and don’t wander off on your own."
While speaking, she stuffed several bills into He Wenyu’s hand: "Mom will call you every day, we’ve left money for you at home, take the school fees from the drawer."
He Wenyu nodded, although she hadn’t been home these past few days, she knew her mother was nearby, and now they were about to be far apart, right?
But she also knew she couldn’t stop it. This was He Juncai’s filial piety and their way of distancing themselves from that unbearable couple.
Soon after, He Jun took Huang Yueran away. They had initially planned to take He Wenyu too, but then thought better of it, as He Wenyu’s grade was starting school tomorrow.
Not long after the two left, Luo Qianqian and He Wenyu also exited the house. He Wenyu carefully checked that all doors and windows were locked before they comfortably left.
When the two returned to the hotel and informed Jimo Cheng and Lin Jiayou, they found Jimo Cheng furrowing his brows.
He Wenyu was a bit scared and tugged at Luo Qianqian’s sleeve, in her mind, Jimo Cheng had transformed from a gentle young man to someone incredibly capable. Seeing Jimo Cheng’s expression, Luo Qianqian also grew suspicious: "Brother, what’s up?"
"We are leaving tomorrow afternoon," Jimo Cheng said.
Luo Qianqian was startled, as if she had just remembered another task, she smacked her forehead: "Right, what about Xiao Yu?"
Lin Jiayou touched his nose. "I’m still here, I’ll wait for Uncle He and the others to return before going back to school." Jimo Cheng and Luo Qianqian must have something important to do; otherwise, Luo Qianqian wouldn’t be so troubled. As a brother, of course, he wanted to relieve his sister’s concerns.
Luo Qianqian was stunned, looked towards He Wenyu, and He Wenyu nodded. Luo Qianqian’s only worry was that unbearable family creating trouble; having someone around was surely good, and besides, with Lin Jiayou here, Zhao Wenxuan would probably not dare to bother her for the time being.
